The Economics Department has compiled a comprehensive information book for students majoring or minoring in Economics. Sections of the information book include: declaring Economics as a major or minor, requirements for completion of the program, the Honors Program, graduating with distinction, types of undergraduate degrees and transfer credit, to name a few. The information is reviewed annually to update any changes to the undergraduate program.
